/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

>Hire potential vtubers
>Give them generic avatars
>Teach them how to become vtubers and have them practice streaming
>Graduate them
>They have the choice to apply to Nijisanji, or leave to do other activities/apply to other companies/go indie/fuck off
Basically like showcasing some goods (the streamers)

>>12435428
If you want to learn to become vtuber this is basically what it does

>>12435639
>Give them generic avatars
they look pretty decent to me. i'd say the girls are even cuter than some of the actual nijis.
>They have the choice to apply to Nijisanji, or leave to do other activities/apply to other companies/go indie/fuck off
damn, they're being way too generous with this.
okay, i get the idea. but it still seem kinda pointless. if they're "qualified" for this role, they should be good enough to just straight up become "real" vtubers. i mean, there are a lot of vtubers out there with little to zero knowledge of social skills, public speaking, singing, etc and they're doing fine. isn't it kind of a waste of time to put them in this position?

>>12435428
AnyColor is training new V-tubers because apparently the talent pool is so dry now that Cover can’t find anyone for 6th Gen.

>>12435428
>vtuber-in-training branch
Where do I sign?

>give the girls varied designs
>meanwhile 4 of the guys have the same haircut haircut
What were they thinking?

>>12436439
Double check those girls anon.

>>12436304
It's their idea of expanding into a new frontier, think of it like some kind of show or event. If they truly wanted to train vtubers they would have done it privately instead of creating fanfare like this, making an entirely new channel for these people to ALL stream on. You basically tune in and watch these people "learn" live on stream, root for them and their skills, and wonder where they'll reincarnate into.
Basically making more clicks/discussion for Nijisanji

>>12436469
Those designs are actually kinda fresh, aside from the not-Mayuzumi-Fuyuko girl.

>>12436529
so that's what it is. i kinda see where they're going to. perhaps this was their initial idea. i mean, the old members like mito, deron, rin are all jk.

>>12436865
Basically even if the girl's enter Hololive (or any other agency for that matter), they won't be [Hololive name], they'll be X from VTA's reincarnation.

>>12436304
>Pointless.
Not quite, since this kind of practice is everywhere in Japanese entertaiment industries and it work.
From Idol, VA, comedian, and actress/actor.
One of major example is comedian group Downtown(the one from batsu game/gaki no tsukai) was comedian academy graduate.

>>12436865
No it wasn't. The reason these are all highschoolers is because it is a literal school they will graduate from.

>>12437056
yes, basically just like suisei who gets to keep her previous name after she joined, right? though for some reason they didn't give irys the same treatment.

>>12437056
No they lose the name and model.

>>12437359
that'd be a huge waste. hopefully they get to choose to keep it.

>>12435428
> what is this?
A way to make money anon, a way to make money.

>>12437439
You're an outlier then, they all have sameface on purpose. It looks bad and unmarketable.

>>12437302
>>12437359
I mean it in a less literal sense, like how everyone knows that Noel is Canan.

>>12437665
>no flashy colors/unnecessary accessories = unmarketable
you know, sometimes simple is the best. all of them looks really great without being overdesigned.

>>12437893
All of the girls have the same face as each other and same as the guys who look even worse. They're all dull colored and wearing the exact same uniform, it is literally copy pasted down to the wrinkles.

>>12437977
not being able to tell the difference between faces is a sign of autism. i feel bad for you.

>>12436402
Here, months ago and being living in Japan. https://vta.anycolor.co.jp/audition/

>>12435639
I imagine they also teaches you how to stream, have a streaming presence, and not dox yourself.

>>12437216
It's different though because they're using avatars which they will lose upon graduation. Whatever fanbase they had might be gone. Not everyone will be like coco/kson.

>>12438103
Learn what sameface is before using words you don't understand, anonchama.

It's good to see that one of the two industry leaders is actually doing something that will benefit the industry as a whole. Truly continuing the spirit of the foundation set by Kizuna Ai.

>>12439261
People can recognize 2views that joined NijiEN/HoloEn, anon. Don't underestimate people's autism in doxxing vtubers.

>>12439581
Jesas

>>12443247
what's the other one doing?

Honestly I thought this was pretty dumb but then Holo announced they closed auditions for two characters and nobody was qualified, so, yeah, maybe this is something the industry needs.

>>12453080
Ruining the industry by creating misandrist men

>>12435428
It's nice that they're raising girls to feed Hololive, because after seeing how Nijifags treat girls in their company, there's no way any sane woman would want to join them, at least the non-JP branches are still somewhat normal, I guess.

>>12446106
It's going to go even faster because the japanese are bigger autists

>>12435428
>the girl designs are legit cute
Ahhh, what a wasted of design

>>12435428
Cute folks

this is some reality tv shit

>>12465562
Now that you say it I can see the similarities. Although I assume this won't really be scripted. I've never seen any of those Idol reality talent shows but this may be somewhat in the same vein

>>12439581
it's vtuber boot camp. they're not going to waste money on unique designs. the entire point is to give them 1 year to create unique content. if they pass, they get their own unique model. they're supposed to be generic as fuck.

>>12466353
Huh. I like this idea, it's a pretty novel one.

>>12438774
>Free
Wut. How in the...

>>12435428
an excuse to pump and dump even more trash

>>12439261
>>12436304
The idea is to hire people who have no experience and aren't able to commit to a long-term contract with Nijisanji with actual expectations placed upon them. They're being treated as students and therefore aren't expected to make money or anything, just do their own thing and grow.

Then once they're acclimated to vtubing they can either stick with Nijisanji or quit and move somewhere else. In fact they probably fully expect their fans to move with them when they graduate so it's kind of a head start for someone looking to go indie or do their own thing after building a fanbase through Nijisanji.

It seems like a really good deal unless they're being extorted or forced to pay for the program. I'm kinda surprised Cover didn't do it first since this is really common in idol agencies and some idolfags really like supporting inexperienced newbies.

>>12467195
Because Cover doesn’t have an issue with creating successful vtubers?
They also don’t want to overcrowd their own agency whereas Nijisanji has no problem debuting 10 more vtubers as long as one of them has moderate success.

>>12467291
It's all part of the nijisanjification

>>12467291
Anon what the fuck are you talking about? These students are not part of Nijisanji, just like those VR maid cafes are not part of nijisanji. And in the first place, people who go through this program may even go and join Cover once they're finished. You have a fundamental misunderstanding of the situation at hand
